SNCA3x_2KO_C1

The basal medium for this cell line is StemFlex™ Basal Medium. To make the complete medium add the following to 450 mL basal medium:

• 50 mL StemFlex™ Supplement 10X 
• 1 µM of Thiazovivin: 1 mM Thiazovivin/DMSO solution - prepared using 1 mg Thiazovivin/ 3.1212 ml DMSO

Note: Thiazovivin/DMSO solution is used only at Start-Up and Day 0 of all subcultures and removed next day - substituted with StemFlex™ Basal Medium.

To ensure the highest level of viability, thaw the vial and initiate the culture as soon as possible upon receipt. If upon arrival, continued storage of the frozen culture is necessary, it should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -70°C.  Storage at -70°C will result in loss of viability.  

1. Thaw the vial by gentle agitation in a 37°C water bath. To reduce the possibility of contamination, keep the O-ring and cap out of the water.  Thawing should be rapid (approximately 2 minutes).
2. Remove the vial from the water bath as soon as the contents are thawed, and decontaminate by dipping in or spraying with 70% ethanol. All of the operations from this point on should be carried out under strict aseptic conditions.
3. Transfer the vial contents to a centrifuge tube containing  9.0 mL complete culture medium. and spin at approximately 125 x g for 5 to 7 minutes.
4. Resuspend cell pellet with the recommended complete medium (see the specific batch information for the culture recommended dilution ratio). It is important to avoid excessive alkalinity of the medium during recovery of the cells.  It is suggested that, prior to the addition of the vial contents, the culture vessel containing the complete growth medium be placed into the incubator for at least 15 minutes to allow the medium to reach its normal pH (7.0 to 7.6). pH (7.0 to 7.6).
5. Incubate the culture at 37°C in a suitable incubator.  A 5% CO₂ in air atmosphere is recommended if using the medium described on this product sheet.

Notes: CBM coated culture vessels used. Do NOT use CellSTACKs Note on dissociation medium
1. Remove and discard culture medium.
2. Briefly rinse the cell layer with PBS.
3. Add 2.0 to 3.0 mL of 0.5mM EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
   Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal.
4. Add 6.0 to 8.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
5. Centrifuge cells to remove dissociation agent and resuspend in complete media .
6. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new CBM coated culture vessels.
   Cultures can be established between 2 x 10⁴ and 1 x 10⁵ viable cells/cm². Do not exceed 7 x 10⁴ cells/cm².
7. Incubate cultures at 37°C.
